Show Notes

Jackie and Greg don their leotards for Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger's THE RED SHOES from 1948. Topics of discussion include the film's sumptuous use of Technicolor, what it has to say about living an artistic life, a detailed breakdown of Anton Walbrook's character, and why it remains one of the most beloved films ever made.
